Good Will Hunting

Post by Dissie » Thu Mar 15, 2012 2:34 pm

I had forgotten how good this movie really is. Watching it again today on Netflix. (I was bored) :P I can't believe its been 15 years since they filmed this movie! Matt Damon was a cutie back then, well, he still is! :)

One of our favorites, Dissie. But don't forget Robin Williams' superb performance -- perhaps a career best -- and Minnie Driver's balance of comic invention and raw emotional anguish.

Does everyone know that Ben Affleck and Matt Damon wrote it while they were in their 20's -- and subsequently won the Academy Award for best original screenplay?

Trivia: If memory serves, Brad Pitt was a contender for the lead role, and Robin Williams' revelations about his wife's nocturnal sounds was an adlib. :lol:

Do agree this was a good movie.

I have always enjoyed movies with Matt Damon or Minnie Driver.
